2012 Map of Vocation

About this map

Kamms Corner and Vocation anchor this 2012 study of Park County’s high plains, where the landscape is meticulously shaped by an extensive network of irrigation. The Garland Canal and Ralston Reservoir serve as the lifeblood of this agricultural region, feeding a complex grid of laterals like the Ralston Lateral that support the local ranching and farming operations. The terrain is bisected by the Shoshone River, which carves through the southern portion of the quadrangle, drawing in tributary drainage from Question Cr and Buck Cr. This modern survey illustrates the transition from river-fed lowlands to the managed water systems of the Alkali Creek Patch to the north. Recreation and ranch access are marked by paths such as the Eaglenest Trl and Dutcher Springs Trl, weaving through a grid of numbered roads that define the rural settlement pattern near Eaglenest.
